Lamelo Ball won’t return ankle sprain

Somehow knowing that the other main option also failed miserably makes my Young trade last week feel better, it's better knowing that no matter which option you chose, you were wrong

Misery, company something something.

This is where this format revolves around luck with no injuries. Having your team playing a whole scheduled week makes a huge difference. The more weeks you have like the better😀

Sportsdeck have stuffed up the scores again🥺, few players on wrong point totals

I'll lock in whatever they did to Lillard to have a decent score

Just about all of them are a mess it seems.

God their updated menus in the players are hideous as well, not sure why they decided to go to pop-out instead of drop-down menu but it's ugly like AFLF were involved in the design!

 

[wogitalia]

Also somehow scraped through the Eliminator last week and despite my team not having anything unique happening somehow only Durant and Jokic are shared players assuming his team is final, back to back weeks with 2 or less in common which consider I've got 7 in common with most teams is just crazy. I should win easily with a much better team and an extra half dozen games, I will definitely eat these words

0/242

Can I accept the fake scores? Just lock them in SD!

Can I accept the fake scores? Just lock them in SD!

Turnovers worth +2 instead of -1 and missed three point attempts instead of missed shots, then yes please.

 

[Jay Sea]

I did quick maths for this, I get 272 from 8 involvements:
Jokic 106
Antet 47
Thompson 42
Gafford 33
Bridges 27
*****
Then the woofs
CC 13
OO 4

What do we learn from this? Don't trust blokes with the same initial for first and last names...

 

[Dazza]

335

Jokic 53x2 106
Davis 54
Giannis 47
Thompson 42
Tatum 20
Jovic 18
Westbrook 18
Edwards 17
Cunnngham 13


Jovic has only 3 games this round with the rest 4
With Daniels out, went back to trading my 3 Thunder players out
Traded Thompson and Giannis in👍
Traded Cunningham in👎

 

[tso]

Thompson with 5 games will be popular next week

Has it ever been established when eliminator trades are shown to the opponent? My opponent's team is too good to be a ghost ship, but they appear to have made no trades (yet).

I'll take them playing Jalen Green and Scoot if they haven't traded...

Pretty sure they are live as soon as the first game of the week starts, but happy to be corrected.

I can't find an official source yet but am hearing Lavine is likely to miss three games due to the birth of his child

- closest that I could find was this:

That’s what it looked like last week, but the team I have is pretty strong for not trading… and shouldn’t have held Scoot.

They are professional athletes paid millions to work less than 20 hours a week This is absurd to me.

To be fair they have a 3 game road trip ...

- Jokic did the same thing earlier on this season and he rarely misses any games until the lead up to finals ..

LaMelo on the never again list. Has cost me 5+ games already this season. He's a good DT scorer but as soon as I trade him in he manages to get himself injured soon after, every single time.

Imminent child birth Information would have been useful to me yesterday lol

I agree .. surely some beat reporter would have got wind of this before the round started ...

Childbirth, injury, personal leave, resting players, reduced playing time, etc. it is time for Sportsdeck NBA to introduce a Flex next season to improve the level of competitiveness in the league.
